Students of today living in e-worlds, receive stimuli lots more from the cyberspace, the sat (and local) tv, the radio and much less from the press and the written material. As a consequence, they tend to become more "optic". The written expression is maybe superior and eternal, but soul and feeling is just a prerequisite to manage it. Students of today are more passive to messages and less active. In parallel, they are more attracted by the dynamics of the picture that is the easiest to understand and express oneself form of communication. So, let's focus our "A picture equals 1000 words" project on it! The nature, (sea, mountains, flowers, sun sets and sun rises) as well as the psychographies that can be drawn from the depiction of social places such as cafes of the old times and cultural events, or even photos of older people carrying the experience of an entire life, will be favourite themes.

Communities to communities. So distant and so close. So close and so distant. We are always aiming at feeling. Allow the students express themselves. And see the pics and the feelings of their classmates round Europe. Pictural communication and yes Synesthesia! hide

But let the dynamics of the picture incite psychograms of the momentum! Expressions of the innerself, shared with all goodness. As Goldman said, the true meaning in life is "To LIVE, to LOVE and to LEARN"! We hope that within this project through the lens our students learn to FEEL. And to UNDERSTAND the feelings of the others. As in schools of today, so much effort focuses on the COGNITIVE PART and IQ measurement. Let us manage high IQs in the sentimental cognitivism! And yes, why not? Let us discover among our students the talented brilliant photographers of tomorrow!!! hide
